President Joe Biden gave his first official press briefing today. How did he do? Well, I didn’t watch the whole thing, but I guess he did OK – expectations were on the low side to start with.
It was scripted of course.
He called on preselected reporters, about six or eight. No surprise, but Fox News was not one of the reporters
selected. However, it should be noted
that there was a winner in the ‘dumbest question’ competition.
One reporter (she actually has a job as a journalist for a
major news agency) was:
“Do you plan on running for re-election in 2024?” And the follow-up, “Will Kamala Harris be on
the ticket with you.” What was Biden’s
answer: “That is my expectation.”
All the things going on in this country and the world – AND,
this is all said ‘professional journalist’ could come up with! Talk about a ‘soft ball,’ inane question.
Some of the other questions were so rambling and convoluted
that they left Biden the opportunity to answer just a portion; with what I would
describe as ‘glittering generalities.’
Which brings me to my prediction for the Presidential election
in 2024 – a prediction that practically no one is particularly interested
in; but I will give it anyway.
President Biden will not run in 2024. He will resign for ‘reported’ health reasons
in 2023 – and VP Harris will assume the Presidency. This will give her the opportunity to
complete Biden’s term, and still be eligible to run in 2024 and 2028 – which will
give her (potentially) ten (10) years as President of the United States.
God help us…
